Types of Wood Flooring We Install

FloorOx installs a wide range of real wood flooring options to suit different interiors, performance needs, and budgets across Gravesend.

Hardwood is the premium benchmark — crafted from durable species like oak, walnut, and ash, it delivers natural depth, strength, and a timeless finish that can last for decades with proper care.

Engineered wood is the most practical and widely chosen solution. A real wood top layer combined with a stable multi-layer core provides the appearance of solid timber with far greater resistance to moisture and temperature changes — ideal for kitchens, ground floors, and underfloor heating.

Solid wood is produced from a single piece of timber, giving every board a unique grain and character. It can be sanded and refinished multiple times, making it a long-term, high-value investment.

Reclaimed wood offers a distinctive aged look, full of natural patina, markings, and variation that cannot be replicated with new materials — perfect for adding authenticity and character to a space.

Bamboo is a sustainable, high-performance alternative — exceptionally hard-wearing, moisture-resistant, and well suited to modern interiors where durability and clean design are essential.

Wood Flooring Patterns & Styles

The pattern your floor is laid in has a major impact on the overall feel of your space. FloorOx installs a full range of wood flooring patterns across Gravesend — from classic layouts to statement designs that completely transform a room.

Herringbone is one of the most popular choices. Its interlocking V-shaped layout creates a flowing zigzag effect that adds movement, texture, and a sense of refinement — ideal for hallways, lounges, and open-plan areas.

Chevron offers a sharper, more contemporary finish — boards are cut at precise angles so they meet in clean points, forming a bold, directional pattern that stands out in modern interiors.

Basketweave delivers a traditional parquet look, using short boards arranged in alternating pairs to create a woven effect — perfect for adding depth and character, especially in period-style properties.

Straight & diagonal lay remain highly versatile options. Straight planks give a clean, timeless appearance, while diagonal installation introduces visual interest and can help smaller rooms feel more spacious.

Whatever pattern you choose, FloorOx ensures precise alignment, clean detailing, and a high-quality finish throughout every installation in Gravesend.

Wood Flooring for Kitchens & Living Spaces

More Gravesend homeowners are choosing real wood flooring throughout their home — including the kitchen. Engineered wood is the preferred option here, thanks to its stable layered construction that handles moisture and temperature changes far better than solid timber. We guide you on the right species, finish, and fitting method — with hard-wax oil finishes popular for easy maintenance and glue-down installation providing a solid, stable feel underfoot.

Beyond the kitchen, real wood continues to deliver. Solid hardwood and engineered floors with a quality wear layer can be refinished multiple times, maintenance is straightforward, and they don’t trap dust, allergens, or pet hair. Engineered wood and bamboo are both fully compatible with underfloor heating, real wood complements any interior style, and it remains one of the most effective ways to add long-term value to your Gravesend home.

Cost of Wood Floor Installation in Gravesend

The cost of wood floor installation in Gravesend varies depending on flooring type, installation complexity, and subfloor condition. As a general guide:

Budget engineered wood floor installation: from £40–£60 per m² (supply and fit)
Mid-range solid or engineered hardwood floor installation: from £65–£100 per m² (supply and fit)
Premium hardwood, herringbone pattern, or reclaimed wood flooring: from £100–£160+ per m² (supply and fit)

All prices are indicative. FloorOx provides clear, written quotes following an in-home survey — so you have a fixed, accurate price before any work begins.

Several variables influence the final cost of your installation:

Materials. Wood species, grade, board width, and thickness have the biggest impact on price — premium hardwoods, wide-plank boards, and reclaimed timber command a higher cost than standard engineered options.
Pattern Complexity. Herringbone, chevron, and basketweave layouts require more precision, time, and material than straight-lay floors. Expect a 20–40% uplift for patterned installations.
Subfloor Condition. Levelling, ply overlays, or structural repairs may be needed before installation. We assess this during the survey and include all preparation work in your quote.
Room Size & Shape. Larger areas typically reduce the cost per m², while irregular layouts, alcoves, and bay windows increase cutting time and material usage.
Finishing Requirements. Unfinished boards that require on-site sanding, staining, and sealing will increase the total cost but allow greater flexibility in the final look.
Removal & Disposal. Lifting and disposing of existing flooring — such as carpet, vinyl, or tiles — is usually priced separately.
